Better YouTube Channel Search

Better YouTube Channel Search upgrades your browsing experience on YouTube by adding a fast, comprehensive search bar and filter strip directly to channel pages. Instantly search across any channel’s full catalog of videos, shorts, and live streams without waiting or navigating through clunky menus. Key Features: • Instant Search-As-You-Type: Find videos in real-time as you enter keywords, video titles, or model numbers. • Smart Relevance & Model Number Matching: Exact model numbers and phrases (like "Pixel 9" or "Android 17") appear right at the top. • Granular Sorting: Seamlessly sort results by Relevance, Latest uploads, Most Popular (view count), or Oldest. • Content Type Filters: Filter instantly between All content, Regular videos, Shorts, and Live streams. • Full Keyboard Navigation: Arrow key navigation across filter chips, quick escape to clear, and full accessibility support. • Seamless Dark & Light Themes: Designed to naturally match YouTube's modern interface. • 100% Private & On-Device: All searching and catalog indexing happens locally on your computer. Your search terms, browsing habits, and data are never collected, tracked, or sent anywhere. How To Use: 1. Navigate to any YouTube channel page (e.g. youtube.com/@channel). 2. The Better Channel Search bar will appear directly above the channel video grid. 3. Type any search term to immediately see matching results. 4. Click any sort chip (Relevance, Latest, Popular, Oldest) or content chip (All, Videos, Shorts, Live) to refine your results. 5. Press Escape or click the Clear button (×) anytime to restore the default channel view. Privacy & Permissions: Better YouTube Channel Search operates entirely on your computer. It uses local browser storage solely to cache video titles and thumbnails so searches remain instant. It collects zero personal information, uses zero external tracking scripts, and never sells your data. Support & Feedback: Developed by Doug Lynch.
